Hara Bhara Kabab

Clean, wash and soak the chana dal for 1 hour and drain. In a pressure cooker add the chana dal, garlic, ginger, green chilies and ½ cup of water, mix well and pressure cook for 2 whistles. Allow the steam to escape before opening the lid. Drain.

Add the chana dal, green peas, spinach and blend in a blender till smooth using ½ tbsp water if needed. Transfer into a bowl and add the paneer, salt, garam masala, chaat masala and ¼ cup bread crumbs, mix well.

Divide the mixture into 12 equal portions and shape each portion into a 50 mm. (2”) flat kebabs. Dip each kebab into the prepared flour- water paste and roll in the remaining bread crumbs.

Heat the oil in a non-stick kadhai and deep-fry them till they are golden brown in colour from both the sides. Serve hot with tomato ketchup and green chutney.
